Hello, I've been interested in the ROG Phone II, but in order to use it in my country, I have to register it. It really sucks, because there's a lot of phones which have compatible bands but because they don't have FCC certification, they'll just block your phone.
Anyway, long story short, does anyone here own the Tencent Edition? If you do, can anyone provide a screenshot of the Regulatory Labels, or at least tell me if it shows the FCCID in the Regulatory Labels section? Thank you.

Thank you so much, both of you.
I probably also should've asked this in the OP, but what model number was on the sticker? I've seen a lot of unboxing videos where it said "I001DA" but the label says "I001DC". Just want to be completely certain.

Hi Briphlo
I'm from the same country that force us to register the cellphone, in the page of the crc it's published the approval for the I001DC fcc ID, this is the tencent edition 8gb ram 128 gb ?

Unfortunately not, I001DC is an American variant. Tencent Edition (8gb ram 128gb) is I001DA. I tried to register it in my country and they told me it cannot be done because I001DA is not registered in the FCC.
But why in the images that the owners send you, appears the code I001DC and not DA those not suppose that is the code of the tencent edition?
Asus_I001DA FCC ID
good day
Friends will someone have the FCC ID of the Asus_I001DA? I would greatly appreciate it since I can't find it anywhere.
Same problem
Guys I have the same problem.
I'm from the same country.
At the end your phone were blocked??
How do you solve it?
Thanks.

Ah, so we're talking grey market. In that case first will be eBay but which outfits are hard to guess. One of those will likely be reasonably reliable, seems like the international phones didn't get the jump US phones did though, my FD didn't ship until Friday.

I answered your PM but I can get back here if others are interested, phone arrives tomorrow, it shipped on the 9th but lagged in customs for a few days.
Thanks for the info. I ordered one from them as well, but I wasn't able to view the model number. I hope it is an "FD".
I would be curious to see which CSC this phone will have and if you will be able to use Samsung Pay with the US sim card. I have a S8+, supposedly with Taiwanese CSC and can't use SP - it requires a Korean sim card.

Yep, it's FD, both SIMS in and working fine. No, it's not region locked. Yes, it's a carrier phone. No, you are not stuck with useless bloat, it's stock Sammy but downloads a few apps during setup which you can delete. You didn't ask but you'll be glad to know they threw in a US Samsung charger.
I'm not sure if this constitutes taunting or not but I haven't been on Sammy since the Note 7 and I'd forgotten how many features they have salted all over the place. I've been screwing around for hours and still haven't got my setup in yet.
Oh, one other, other thing. I didn't see any way to enable LTE on both SIMS, it seems you can do either one but not both together. Isn't an issue for me but that bugs some people although I don't recall ever having a phone that could.

Depends on what you want, need, and can afford now vs then. The belief is that the global version will have band support that the current Tencent version doesn't have. If you need that additional band support, then wait. If it's more expensive and you can afford it, then wait. But if you're impatient like me, get it now. I should have mine on Saturday. It supposedly doesn't have 71 support. And maybe more. I'll report on what I can this weekend. I'll be connecting to TMO though.

The tencent version has typical chinese battery management stuff that will cause issues with notifications, and its a bit more locked down. Best to be on the worldwide rom.

Hi everyone,
I'm a little confused and would appreciate any help provided. I've read many of the posts and am still a little unsure which LTE bands the currently available 8/128 version has. I've seem some sites that show only a few and some sites that show more. Can someone confirm which LTE bands the currently available 8/128 version has?
Also, after switching over to the WW rom, does it allow you to pick which version of the UI (near stock vs ROG) during setup?
Thanks in advance!!!

Giztop is claiming that the 12/512 version of the tencent rog phone 2 has all the LTE bands I would need for TMobile (2, 4, 12, 66, but no 71) but I'm fairly weary.
I think I'll wait for the international model.

I've read that the Tencent version of the ROG Phone 2 doesn't support LTE band 66, but that would be pretty awesome if it does!
Additionally, everything I've read seems to suggest that the phone will work fine on AT&T/T-Mobile. I'm particularly interested in finding out if this phone will work on Verizon's network or not though. All the phones I came across on ebay have bold disclaimers stating that the phone is not compatible with Verizon. At the same time, it supports most of Verizon's 4G LTE bands (except maybe band 66) and 1900 PCS for 3G. I wonder if maybe the phone will work on Verizon but with reduced coverage? I'd rather not switch carriers but I also really want to get this phone. I'm very tempted to just buy it now and be a guinea pig for the network, but I think I'll hold out a couple more weeks until it officially launches in the US. If it doesn't work on Verizon that'd be a huge bummer, at that point I'd have to pick between switching carriers or upgrading to something else like a Note 10.
US user, LTE in USA works great. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOVxNG93amc

Apparently, they are selling the 128 GB version on INDIA too. And it isn't the Tencent VErsion. It is the global version one, with the aero case, but with the 18W charger and no cooler.

The Indian model is listed as having VoLTE and the only retailer I can find that has it listed is Flipkart. They list the model number as
ZS660KL-1A017IN
I'm guessing India is getting their own special version. IIRC Indian law requires a certain percentage of the phone to be manufactured in India.

I checked Kimovil yesterday regarding tencent version's supported bands for India, and it has all the necessary ones. Which leads me to believe that the phone will be very similar to the tencent version, with some better stuff like aero case and global firmware, but not that far off. For those without a ROG 2 yet it seems worth it to get it form there, but without expecting any additional bands IMO.

I said that the tencent version already has all LTE Bands for India, so the "India version", however different it may be with the aero case, global firmware, etc., most likely won't have a change of LTE Bands. At least that's what I think.

Thanks for the link, I ordered one directly from Asus. Wasn't crazy about $70 in tax but at least I know I will have a valid warranty and I can return it if I need to without a hassle.
Hey guys. So I've been a samsung user for years now and I stopped checking XDA or rooting for a long time now. So please bear with me.
I am interested in getting this phone from AliExpress (the only way for me in the middle east).
It's obviously the chinese tencent version. The seller mentions that it is flashed with a multilanguage ROM but with no OTA updates.
He says that we can ask for pre chinese phone in a completely sealed box (running unmodified software, chinese original rom).
I personally use my phone in English only and don't care about the multilanguage thing. In fact, I've previously perfectly used a Xiaomi device running the chinese rom.
So here goes my questions:
1- Any downsides of getting the chinese version and keeping it that way to keep getting OTAs?
2- Will I be able to flash google services and apps?
3- Is it rootable and unrootable on chinese rom?
If so, will we still be able to receive OTAs when rooted?
4- Is there's any way to have call recording without root? (I mean built-in support like xiaomi phones for example)?
5- Is the RAM management really as bad as I've heard? (check this review at 6:10). I mean I want to have full use of the full use of those 8GB ram.
6- Is there any way to flash a global rom and keep getting OTAs?
Thank guys.
Buy the North American version from the Asus website and save yourself a ton of trouble. Just be aware this phone will not do VoLTE or VoWiFi with any of the USA carriers.

It was actually $970 with tax directly from Asus but that gets you a valid warranty and the North American LTE bands so the phone will work properly here. You may want to read through the other threads here. All of your other questions have been asked and responded to. Good luck

Hi, I saw online a guy who s selling an S10, which is defective cause after some month of usage it stopped recognizing the sim card, it just works fine with wifi. In the ad there where also some pics that led me to imagine the phone is original, but i still have some questions not replied yet, he took a pic of the setting page where you can see the model number and i read SM-G973X. I ve tried to look on the interet which variant it is but i had no luck, so im here asking and hoping someone can ask me. Thanks already for replies, much appreciated.
G973X means all Variants for S10 in terms of software builds and isn't a valid model number for hardware device. For example the international variant with exynos is G973F. Show us a Screenshot.
Sorry for my bad english.
